European INSPIRE Conference just took place in Kraków, wonderful Polish city. Guests from all over European 27 countires and from lot of countires eastwards of Vistua River came as well.
INSPIRE - Infrastructure of Spatial Information in Europe gets more and more robust each and every year. INSPIRE Directive have been transposed into system of the Polish Law, in the form of Law on Spatial Information Infrastructure, which have entered into force on June 7th, 2010, with estimated implementation cost of ca 650 million polish zlotys (ca 650 million euro), with the implementation timeframe of 2010-2019.
This bill does include only expenditures of the Government of Poland, and does not include expenditures of self-governmental entities of Poland.
One of the key challenges of spatial planning in Poland (apart of legislation changes taking place now) - will be publishing of existing and legally binding spatial planning documents, accordingly to INSPIRE standards, ie. in WMS (Web Mapping Service) and WFS (Web Feature Service), since the number of these documents hit figure of 33 000 detailed local development plans in 2004 and grew up to ca 35 000 plans in 2009, out of which only small part existed so far in the digital (GIS) form.

I made a mistake. 650 million of PLN = 143 million euro
